Wistful sparrow

This cute little sparrow was sitting high up in the tree on the sidewalk in front of our house. Don’t know why he (or she) wasn’t with all the other sparrows in our crape myrtle, but he seemed to prefer being alone.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.

In praise of reading, posted earlier:

1/1600s f/5.6 at 300.0mm iso320 full exif

The sparrow sees you as a friend, pleasant in front of your camera. A beauty of photography. V

He does look lonely :( but you got a good shot. V

It is all fluffed up, keeping warm, I guess. A fine sharp shot of this sparrow.

The bird seems to be thinking about something. Maybe he can think better alone. Very cute capture of his pose. V

Wistful or perhaps a daydreamer. :-)

Alone, listening, thoughtful: I like this little sparrow.

Cute head tilt - definitely a poser. Probably practising for Twitter.
